Cover with waxed paper and microwave on High 2 minutes 45 seconds to 4 minutes or until just slightly pink in center. Remove from rack; let stand about 3 minutes or until burgers are no longer pink in center and juice is clear.

Expert Tips

If your supermarket sells ground beef only by the pound, double all the ingredients and make four patties. Then tightly wrap and freeze two of the patties, and you’ll be steps ahead for another meal!

You can use ground turkey breast instead of the beef for a low-fat twist.
